120 ES Vx: 85 Vy: 105 Vg: 100 Glide ratio is very
dependent upon the type of prop and configuration of the prop. For example: IVP with non-feathering
propeller: fine pitch 7.7:1 coarse pitch 15:1 IVP with feathering propeller: 18:1 There is a big difference as
you can see. If this is to figure a glide ring, I would be very wary of putting anything but worst case as could lead to
an airplane ending up short of the landing area. Justin
